Kimitsugu Ozawa
Ozawa, Managing Partner, Kaneko and Associates LLP
US CPA ( California )
In 1998, I came to the United States to study accounting at a graduate school in the United States. After graduating from a Japanese university and before coming to the U.S., I worked in the overseas sales department of the semiconductor division of a major Japanese precision equipment manufacturer, where I was involved in the export of semiconductors. I wanted to support Japanese companies operating overseas while dealing with companies from all over the world, and I also wanted to acquire more specialized knowledge. After completing graduate school, I worked for a U.S. accounting firm in San Francisco, and later moved to a Japanese accounting firm. In December 2019, I decided to establish Ozawa and Associates. We welcome Mr. Yayoi Kaneko as a new partner and will offer our services as Ozawa, Kaneko and Associates LLP. We will continue to strive to provide our clients with more friendly and responsive services.
